Abstract
A 53-year-old woman with a mass in the anterior mediastinum was admitted to our hospital. Video assisted thoracic surgery was performed for extirpation and the postoperative diagnosis was bronchogenic cyst of the thymus. Such cysts are commonly located in the middle mediastinum. Herein, we report a rare case of a bronchogenic cyst of the thymus in the anterior mediastinum.
